The Mall Nakhon Ratchasima, opened in 2000, is the biggest shopping center in the North-eastern region of Thailand, located direrctly on Mitraphap Road in Nakhon Ratchasima (colloquially known as Korat), Thailand. Sub-titled the 'Paragon of Isan' and 'Pride of Korat' by pro-Mall interests. While initial concern about significant impact to the city's main traffic artery by construction at this location was voiced to The Mall management, the concern was not addressed and construction was implemented. As a result, there are significant traffic congestion and pollution issues directly associated with the decision to proceed. Billions of Thai Baht are also being considered to accommodate the problem through construction of a tunnel and other measures.

Famous quotes containing the word mall:
“A father ... knows exactly what those boys at the mall have in their depraved little minds because he once owned such a depraved little mind himself. In fact, if he thinks enough about the plans that he used to have for young girls, the father not only will support his wife in keeping their daughter home but he might even run over to the mall and have a few of those boys arrested.”
—Bill Cosby (20th century)
